Things I found interesting…
•Married saw no big jump, despite being the “finale”
•Nine still couldn’t manage to beat Seven overall, despite that
•TBL sunk to an almighty new low
•Fast & Furious 6 performed well over its run late at night
•Footy Classified’s audience is split across three broadcasts across the Nine Network
•News & Current Affairs were all high
I liked the chefs line. It was short, to the point, there was friendly competition, judge mark had a bit of a sense of humour and most importantly those Vietnamese rolls made me hungry!
Why did they not talk to everybody on the couch last nite on married ? N the way it just bluntly ended was pretty weird .. was like thank u for letting us use u , bye now . Strange indeed
Wow. House Husbands lost lot’s of viewers. Not even Delta can help. Pity, I’m not liking this series that much. Bring back Kain!!!
Each to their own. Kane leaving was the reason I have returned to the show and have been enjoying it. But Delta is a real turn-off for me.
Could be a bit of a “dead cat bounce” for Modern Family, who’s to say Loser might not have climbed by the same amount with Daylight Savings ending
Dead Cats Make You LOL?
haha very good 😉 – Ch 10, get onto this
Surprised Modern Family did that well with a last minute change and zero promotion. Must be just people who flick around and settle on what is on at the time making it around 300k.
Would love to know how many people watched The Chef’s Line – didn’t mind that at all!
Any idea on how The Bold and the Beautiful is currently rating these days?
Sometimes higher than primetime entries. 285k yesterday.
Love it or loathe it, MAFS has been a massive hit and rated ahead of MKR on most occasions when they went head to head. Both Australian Story and Four Corners made for interesting television last night, especially Four Corners. How anyone could vote for One Nation after seeing this program.
David do you know how the biggest loser rated thanks in advance
89,000.
So no much more than when it was an encore.
I know the show failed in ratings – but at the end of the day there were 250k watching – surely Ten would at least let them know by a promotion here and there that they can watch TBL-T during the day rather than having most of them thinking its not on at all (I know lot of people who don’t look any further than prime time in their EPGs).
10 don’t care-and most of the former audience will have forgotten it was ever on by now…
Well, at least Modern Family beat Biggest Looser from last week.
Speaking of which, how did TBL rate during the day? It would be intresting to get an idea of how it’s doing.
